Commercial air conditioning for homes and businesses in Fair Cross
Commercial air conditioning comes with F-gas duties for the operator. Systems at or above 5 tCO2e need leak checks, and records kept of the checks and the work done. We handle the checks and records and remind you when the next is due. The work covers multi-split systems, wall-mounted split systems and ducted systems, and people most often call us about systems over 12 kW due a TM44 inspection and R410A systems getting dearer to top up.
Around Fair Cross, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, shops, halls, surgeries and farm or rural businesses. Older buildings may be listed, so planning comes first.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight and each visit is recorded.

What happens if it’s left?
Where the system is over 12 kW, a TM44 inspection is due at least every 5 years. The recommendations often point to simple improvements and we can do the work they recommend. Small faults tend to grow, so it’s worth dealing with them early.

The process
The work area is kept tidy throughout, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. The visit takes anything from a day or two for a small office to several weeks of phased work on a large building. If a lane or gateway near Fair Cross is tight for a van, let us know and we will plan for it.
- An engineer walks the building with you to understand its layout, its users and its heat sources.
- You get a fixed-price quote with the equipment, the layout and the programme set out.
- Installation is scheduled to fit the business, with out-of-hours and phased work where needed.
- We fit the units, run and test the pipework, connect the condensate and wire in the controls.
- The system is commissioned and you receive the F-gas records, handover notes and manufacturer paperwork.
How to prepare

Commercial air conditioning around Fair Cross
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 5 restaurants, cafés and canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Fair Cross. Restaurants, hotels, schools and care settings each need cooling designed for their hours and heat loads.
Churches and halls such as Church of St. Mary the Virgin are often used a few hours at a time, which suits a system that heats or cools a space quickly, once consents are in place. Larger commercial systems need F-gas leak checks and, over 12 kW of cooling, TM44 inspections.

Different systems, different jobs
Offices
Offices gain heat from occupants, equipment and the sun. We size the system for the actual heat load and choose units that suit the ceiling and layout.
VRF and VRV systems
Some VRF systems can heat some rooms while cooling others on systems designed for it. We explain whether that would help your building.
What affects the quote in Fair Cross
Typical ranges are on our prices page, but every job is priced on its own. The quote depends on:
- The number of rooms, units or zones
- What kind of system it is
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
A single unit or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the equipment. You will have a fixed price before work begins, and the quote sets out the VAT.
What to send for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
- The outdoor side of the property, including any roof or flat area
- Photos showing the indoor unit and the space around it
Every quote shows the VAT clearly, and the rate that applies to your job is stated. Homes, businesses and different kinds of work can be treated differently for VAT, so we confirm it in writing rather than guess. For a fixed-price quote, ring 07833 053749 or send an email.
Fair Cross questions
Is planning permission needed for air conditioning in Fair Cross?
The answer turns on the property and where the outdoor unit would sit. Around 6 listed entries sit within 0.5 miles of central Fair Cross. An air-to-air system used for heating as well as cooling can be permitted development on a house if it meets the conditions, but a cooling-only unit is not covered, listed buildings need consent and conservation areas restrict outdoor units facing a road. Where needed, we check with the planning department at Basingstoke and Deane council, typically the authority for Fair Cross.
Is Fair Cross in your area for commercial air conditioning?
We do: Fair Cross falls inside our working area. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Can you look after our air conditioning after it’s installed?
Yes, with visits planned around the site. There’s also a 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own from all the leading brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
How much time does a commercial air con install need?
An installation takes from a couple of days for a few cassettes to a planned programme for a whole building. The survey lets us set a firm programme, so give us a ring on 07833 053749 or drop us a line to arrange one.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is written up and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
It can, for some brands. Read the manufacturer’s terms, or send us the make and model and we will explain them, and book the service at the interval they recommend.
